Bellerbys college?

Hey guys...

I'm planning to go to Bellerbys College for their art foundation year in sept 2012.

Any current or previous students? What are your views on it? good or bad? Is it a good course?

Anyone else going there?

Are you sure that college exists? Don't you mean Birkbeck College?

haha..i guess its not well known?
looks like a private college. it may well be good. a lot of private colleges have a bad rep as diploma mills and fake visa factories. look into it just in case.

Bellerbys College is a private college specialised at placing international students onto universities. It has branches in London, Cambridge, Oxford and Brighton. I attended engineering foundation course in 2009 and with this qualification I got into the Uni of Manchester. Because I did engineering, I don't know much about the art foundation but a friend of mine attended and she eventually got into University of Arts London.

Generally, the classed are small sized and they offer special attention to each student. The vast majority of the student body is international. They have university partners which recognise their foundation course. Although they advise you to apply to these partners, you are not limited to them. Most universities recognise Bellerbys College and provided that you get at 65% overall, you are very likely to get into a good university.

It is a very reputable college, unlike those fake visa factories. They even place a couple of students to Oxbridge every year.

What other universities will I be able to go to if I do their A-levels?
